If I were you, I wouldn't bother with eBay repair parts like this. I would go to my local auto parts store (Autozone, Napa, Murrays, Advance Auto) and buy a replacement.

When you do that, they will warranty the part. And believe me, when it comes to things like this, having a warranty is well worth it. (even if it is only fora year or so).

Yeah you can get them for about the same money (considering shipping) from a local parts store and have a lifetime warranty.

Dont mean to thread jack but, I kno this is a real n00b question but if i have a GSR swap i need GSR axels right? or can i just get stock 92-95axels?

And to answer the original Queston def just go to the local adavanced auto parts, auto zone or other parts store and get them. Warranty is def worth it

sorry to interupt this conversation, but ebay isn't a brand name. there's not such thing as ebay axles or ebay repair parts.

I bought a couple a pair cv axle from ebay, they were a lot cheaper. I don't have any problems with them. Also, they were cheap enough that I could have bought a second set.

regular axles won't work on a gsr swap you need to get the gsr axles for what ever year your tranny is and they should slip right in. I see there might be a problem if you are racing and putting constant stress on your axles. But if you want to take a chance go for it. I don't really see there being a problem with axles.
